Summer Party Time at P.S.1

OK.. For those stuck in NYC this summer.. as all real New Yorkers know, Summer time is PARTY TIME at P.S.1!

If you're looking to escape the annoying hordes of lost tourists crawling all over Manhattan.. Go to P.S.1. (FYI..no this is not me in the photo. it's one of my all time favorite summer party boy photo's from photographer Brian Finke's Frat Boy Series..) Here's just a bit of what P.S.1 has going on this summer :

Warm Up is P.S.1's critically acclaimed music series and has become one of the most anticipated summer events. The series is housed within the architectural installation created by the winner of the annual P.S.1 and MoMA organized Young Architects Program . Together, the music, architecture and exhibition program provide a unique multi-sensory experience for music fans, artists, and families alike. Warm Up was conceived in 1997 as a summer-long dance party to attract crowds to P.S.1 and Long Island City, Queens. The series runs every Saturday from July through early September and draws thousands of local and international visitors each day. Advanced tickets are suggested. Here's a video from Warm UP 2005!
